They also offer one to one advocacy support to a core group of service users and have recently secured premises where they will be able to allow services users to shower, wash clothing and have a warm drink and chat, away from the chaos that comes with living on the streets.
Humanitarian Bristol
Humanitarian Bristol was created in response to the COVID-19 crisis in March 2020. The purpose of Humanitarian Bristol is to provide a partnership based, holistically connected approach to support extremely vulnerable people. Vulnerability in this context could be socio-economic, cultural, age, or because of shielding or self-isolation due to a range of issues that conform to the local authority, government, and health guidelines. Service provision would include a supply of colourful food boxes, 1 -1 emotional/mental wellbeing support and signposting to relevant agencies for help.
Leidos is supporting the production of culturally appropriate and generic recipes in video format whereby vulnerable people would be able to create healthy and nutritious food using the items supplied by food banks.
